the sloe gin celebration

i think i was in the eleventh
grade
when i got
sick
while drinking
sloe gin
on the bleachers
at the local
high school.
it was a purple
gooey
substance,
sticky and slick
going
down.
i can still smell it all
these years
later.
sometimes if i ride by
a high school
stadium
i bend over
and gag again.
